Being a parent's a tough gig.some days I want to crawl in a hole and hide,then you have those days that just sort of fall into place and you couldn't think of anywhere else you'd rather be,and then there are those days that even though they didn't go as smooth as you would have liked the day just felt good cause your kid is just too damn cute for their own good.They are perceptive little buggers too as I will be explaining in about two seconds first let me give you a little background for this conversation...My daughter LOOOOOOOOVES puppies.Toy puppies,stuffed puppies,real puppies,all puppies plain and simple all puppies.So the other day my husband and I where trying to get the backyard cleaned up and ready for good weather YEAH SPRING!!! and our two year old is being a regular hoodlum as usual cause ya know it comes with the two year old job description ,when my husband started talking about an old dog house that the previous owner of our property had left behind.Now this a humongous dog house and it takes up almost a whole five feet in one corner of the backyard so we decided to give it away.Well meantime the hoodlum decided that now was as good a time as any to show the world just how strong her vocal cords could be and how fast she could sprint toward the road.My husband being the quickest of the two of us sprints after her and comes back making a off comment about the fact that if she'd behave maybe she'd be able to have a dog.Our next two hours proceeded surprisingly well and we managed to finish in time to enjoy some supper outside on the back deck.Again everything was going way too smooth so I commented to my husband that our daughter might not be feeling well ,that she was very quiet and being very well behaved when making her face as serious as she could get it she looked at her father and I and said "Want puppy."Priceless and a good reminder that no matter what she's so worth it!
